We bought this Britax Vigour 4 Pushchair (& standard car seat & safe sleeper lie flat car seat)in Nov 2008 & have been very happy with it with only one problem. The positives about the pushchair are that it is:

lightweight & easy to push,
has a comfortable height adjustable handle,
has plenty of easy accessible storage space underneath (fits 2 big carrier bags at least)
has lockable or swivel wheels
easy to fit raincover
fantastic safe sleeper lie flat car seat (available as an extra)(my daughter out-grew it at 4 months though)
is compact enough to fit into the boot of my clio if I take one of the wheels off (very easy to do)
folds down quickly & easily
forward or rear facing pushchair or car seat unit(which click on & off easily)

The one problem:
the model we bought has a screw on the inside of the pushchair hood which dug into the side of my daughter's head when she leaned against it when she fell asleep. It left a deep red indentation on the side of her head which looked very painful. We contacted Britax to complain & they exchanged it for a new pushchair (the latest version in coffee colour) which has been redesigned & is great (with a bigger hood). A friend has had the same problem with the pushchair & has only had the seat unit replaced - the only problem with this is that the new version does not have the footrest built into the seat unit like the older version we had. On the new model it is integrated into the chassis. Britax have sent some other people a large head hugger to cover up the screw & cushion it. This problem would not apply with the newer models but beware if you're buying second hand.

Other than that we're really happy & would recommend this pushchair to others.
